I am sure everybody must have enjoyed the earlier post of the dutchess cookies that i had posted. I enjoyed making them and also the taste was absolutely great. This is another one of those easy to make cookies which is not time consuming and the ingredients are readily available. The great aspect of the baking process is that you dont need a commercial oven to prepare these cookies. It can be done with the oven at home.

Ingredients:

Sugar 14oz

Butter 9oz

Eggs 11oz

Vanilla extract (5 drops)

Lemon zest 1ea

Milk 5oz

All-purpose flour 14oz

Baking powder 1tsp

Method

• In a mixing bowl add the sugar and butter and whip it thoroughly until it forms a fine cream.
• Into this add the all purpose flour, baking powder, vanilla extract and milk and mix it thoroughly, it will form a dough.
• Add the eggs one at a time giving time for the egg to bind into the dough.
• Once all the eggs are finished whip it thoroughly to form a fine paste.
• If you have a mold for the cookies, the mixture can be piped into the mould or if you do not have a mold it can be piped into a tray lined with parchment paper.
